The /etc/pam.conf file is the configuration file
for Pluggable Authentication Modules (PAM). PAM is a framework of interfaces
and libraries used by Solaris and other operating systems for authentication.
pam.conf can be edited by the system administrator to include other
services and service modules.
In this particular case, SEOS entries in pam.conf
are preventing VMSA from starting up. Check for the following entries in
/etc/pam.conf:
#
SeOS integrate auth and account
#
other
auth optional /usr/lib/security/$ISA/pam_seos.so
rlogin
auth optional /usr/lib/security/$ISA/pam_seos.so
other
account optional /usr/lib/security/$ISA/pam_seos.so
